Review of Cosmopolis (2012) by Betsy Sharkey for Los Angeles Times — 15 Aug 2012
It is a disappointment coming from writer-director David Cronenberg, who has proved such a master at mind games. Cronenberg is perhaps too faithful to the book. The topic is provocative and certainly timely, but the film never achieves the incisive power of his best work, "A History of Violence" for one.
Even an A-list ensemble that includes Juliette Binoche, Samantha Morton and Paul Giamatti can't save it.
